Brake Calipers

The braking system in a vehicle is a complex arrangement of components whose sole objective is to slow down or bring the vehicle to a complete stop. The system has the brake pedal, master cylinder, brake lines, brake calipers, brake pads, and brake rotors (also known as brake discs).brembo brake calipers,red brake calipers.

The brake caliper is a housing for the brake pads and is responsible for transforming hydraulic pressure into mechanical force. When the driver pushes the brake pedal, the hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder is transmitted to the brake caliper. As the hydraulic pressure reaches the brake caliper, it enters the caliper housing and exerts a force on the pistons inside. The pistons, typically made of metal or composite materials, respond to the hydraulic pressure by moving outward from their original positions within the caliper housing.

The outward movement of the pistons forces the brake pads to come into contact with the brake rotor on both sides. The brake pads, also made of friction material, grip the rotor tightly when pressure is applied. This action generates friction between the brake pads and the rotor, slowing down or stopping the rotation of the wheels.
